There are only two candidates:

Code: Select all

0xC5231FC993A794DD70B60DA18CED34AA0BE018BC = Jaws3_UPK1 (Jaws 3) | D | 2024-05-13

and:

Code: Select all

0x765CE2EA753B62FE134E53654D05C7F349CF5826 = JawsTheRevenge_UPK1 (Jaws: The Revenge) | D | 2024-05-15

Thank you very much. But since I don't know how to update the KeyDB under MacOS, this doesn't help me. What a pity.

The instructions on MacOS are the same as on Windows and Linux: copy the file into MakeMKV's data directory and restart MakeMKV. The only caveat with both MacOS and Linux is that their file systems are case-sensitive, and so you need to ensure that the file is literally KEYDB.cfg and not keydb.cfg.

Thanks a lot. I'll try it out and report back.

[MasterDB2205]

KEYDB.cfg created with data and placed in MakeMKV Data folder. However, I still get the message that the disc cannot be decrypted.

[MasterDB2205]

Sometimes restarting the system can help.

Jaws 3 worked, Jaws 4 didn't - for whatever reason.

What are the full names of your "Jaws 3" and "Jaws 4" dump files please? (Including their 4-character tags.)

I can only assume that your "Jaws 4" disk differs from polskasubie's:

[MasterDB2205]

Both codes/keys are also present in the keydb.cfg. But only Jaws 3 was successfully recognized. He can't open Jaws 4.
The names of the disks also match the names in the KeyDB. It's all true. One disc still won't open.

Tricky. Check your PMs?
